Uh oh....Digital Rev has some explaining to do...

I enjoy Digital Rev's youtube videos minus all the inappropriate jokes by Kai, but one of my Blog readers Melvin sent this in. It is both hilarious and shockingly coincidental at the same time....It is truly amazing this photographer just so happened to check and such a big channel like Digital Rev was caught red handed...

Truth be told, many camera retailers will open a box to check a camera out or take a few test shots, etc and still sell as new. It is in fact very common.

What is not-so-common is taking the camera out for a full on spec test to make a youtube video, or blog article, then package it and sell as new. Technically it should be "like-new" or "in excellent condition". Covered in sweat or water though? No.

I know once I take a new camera out on a shoot, it is officially used.
